“after fierce debates on the contentious matter”
that’s some seriously subjective reporting right there!
I believe “after debate on the matter” would have correct.
Whos f**ked now Tlaib ?
Boo-Hoo girl.....where are you ?
Supporting BDS shows that you do not allow Israel to be a state and that you want all Jews to leave.
Plus the Gov offered to meet with them if they came to Israel.
They refused to meet with political leaders of Israel.
So their whining has no foundation
They only wanted to go to the “occupied” areas to meet with Hamas and other terrorists.
And cause disturbances to effect the elections next month.
They can be compared to what Russia was doing during our election.
Crybabies all of them.
Bethlehem is a walled city — have to go through security to get in and out. Let them in and never let them out! That being said, I am SO glad Bibi isn’t letting them in at all. D@mn traitors!
Respect works both ways.

So many threads. I do think it was an error. As I understand it their agenda to promote BDS was known to Israel. IMO, better to let them vent their propaganda in "palestine", then throw them out of the country. I've read it included a visit to the Temple Mount accompanied by PA officials, and rejecting Israeli security. Bad stuff. Nice if Israel would release what they have of their plans, but no matter. Tlaib's rejection of a visit to Granny without the right to promote BDS openly demonstrates their duplicity.
It's worth noting that, to my knowledge, this trip, organized by MIFTAH, did not include time in Israel, only Judea and Samaria, those areas under palestinian control. Might have been better if they'd gone along on the AIPAC trip for freshman, which included time with both sides of the conflict.

Not a mistake. They are instigators and Israel haters, no room for that there. Should NOT be room for such in the USA either.
